  1. 5. Like and Unlike Terms

  2. Constants Constant: Monomials that are real numbers. Examples: 3, 4, 100

  3. Coefficients Coefficient: the numerical factor in a term Examples: 3x—3 is the coefficient

  4. Like Terms • Terms that are alike or the same. • Examples: Constants (plain numbers) : 2, 17, -1 3x and 5x and -2x: all have the same variable : All have the same variable of 2xy and 3yx: order of variables does NOT matter.

  5. Unlike Terms Terms that are different Examples: 3x and because x and are different 3 and 3x because “3” is a constant and “3x” has a variable 3x and 3y because x and y are different variables Remember:
